Answer and Explanation:

1. The words that describe the style of this essay are: descriptive and narrative. Since the author narrates the memories he has with his grandfather and grandmother, as well as describing how his grandfather loved scary tales and how it taught him to love that kind of story too.

2. Some words and phrases that help to establish this style are: "used", "I would hear", "Grama would say". This is because the words written in the past tense reinforce the idea of narrating memories, while the description of what the grandmother would do, reform the meaning of descriptive text.

4. The use of the word "rug" shows how memories are influenced by curious and intriguing things, because it is this word that makes the author remember that particular moment.

In Astrophysicists Chronicles of Pluto what reason does dr tyson give for excluding Pluto from the museum exhibit?
allsm [11]

Dr Tyson excluded Pluto from the American Museum of National History exhibit because it is considered an icy body and not a planet.

Originally, he identified Pluto as a comet from the Kuiper Belt of Comets, since its composition its mostly ice, and stated that if it came near the sun it would evaporate and grow a tail, an uncommon behavior for a planet.

Eventually, in the 1990s, icy bodies were found in the outer solar system, and the similarity between Pluto and them was evident. The conclusion was that both are made of ice, have similar strange orbits, and cross the orbit of other planets.
